The Matrix re-made in Lego

It's best not to consider quite how long it took to make this, a shot-for-shot Lego re-make of The Matrix's iconic 'bullet-time' scene. You want to know, though, don't you? You sadist. It was 440 hours.

440 hours! Just so you could have about 46 seconds of toy brick-related joy spread into your life, look cool by forwarding it to your mates, then possibly leave an unimpressed comment about it on an excellent men's website.

But you won't be doing that, because this is staggering. And possibly slightly pointless. There's a comparison below which shows you the level of detail which went into the production of the video. Was it worth it?
